The SM.com Network

This LF.com website is part of a network of affiliated dating websites ("Affiliates") that cater to big beautiful women, big men and their admirers ("BBW"). (the "SM.com Network"). Although the LF.com Member database is owned and maintained by SM.com, most of the websites within the SM.com Network are not owned or operated by SM.com.

If you create or maintain a profile on the LF.com website and you share your profile or username with other LF.com Members, you are agreeing that your profile may be displayed to such Members. All Members of LF.com can view your profile unless you set your profile to invisible or restrict access to portions of your profile.

Affiliate Websites

You can see a list of current Affiliate websites via this link. That list of Affiliates may be changed or amended from time to time and the changes reflected in the list referenced above and linked to this Policy. Affiliate websites are landing pages which provide a portal to the LF.com website, which potentially increases the number of individuals with whom you may have a match. Affiliate websites within the SM.com Network have different domain names, but all link to the LF.com website. Anyone who is a LF.com Member, and who accesses the LF.com website through an Affiliate landing page, can view your profile on the LF.com website, unless you set your profile to invisible or restrict access to portions of your profile. Non-members cannot recognize your specific identity by accessing your profile, either on the LF.com website or from an Affiliate landing page, unless you provide public information about yourself, which you have agreed you will not do. See, section 8.3 of this Agreement.

Your Personal Information

SM.com is committed to ensuring that your "Personal Information" (defined below) is protected, but you must also take necessary steps to protect your Personal Information from access by persons whom you do not wish to view it, including anyone who is a LF.com Member. This Policy was created to demonstrate SM.com's commitment to protecting your Personal Information and to inform you how SM.com handles information it receives from you. This Policy only applies to transactions and activities in which you engage and data which is gathered on the LF.com website (including double blind email communications between SM.com or LF.com Members) but does not apply to any non-Affiliate website or offline point of contact or any other company or consumers with whom you may interact and which SM.com does not control.

Entering Into This Legal Agreement

By checking the box at the end of the Service Agreement, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Service Agreement and this Policy for as long as you are a Member of LF.com and use the LF.com website. If you do not agree to the terms and conditions of this Policy, please do not check the box at the end of the Service Agreement or register as a LF.com Member. If at any point as a LF.com Member you disagree with any of the terms and conditions contained in this Policy or those in the Service Agreement, you may terminate your membership by sending an email to support@LargeFriends.com.

Your IP Address

Each time you visit the site, SM.com automatically collects your IP address, SM.com Cookie information and the web page from which you entered the site. SM.com uses that information and your IP address to identify you and to gather demographic information about you to diagnose problems with SM.com's site and to administer and optimize the LF.com website for your use.

Cookies

SM.com uses cookie files saved to your computer for record keeping purposes. SM.com can also use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests, to save your password, and if you choose, to save other Personal Information, so you do not have to re-enter it each time you visit the site. To disable these cookies, simply go to the "help" portion of the toolbar on your browser, which should tell you how to proceed. However, if you set your browser to disable cookies, you may not be able to access certain areas on the LF.com website.

Your Personal and Financial Information

Personal information is personally identifiable information like your name, address, email address, or phone number that is not otherwise publicly available ("Personal Information"). SM.com collects Personal Information from you to better serve your needs. SM.com does this in order to operate the LF.com website and occasionally to display advertisements about products or services that may be of interest to you.
We also collect financial information such as your credit card numbers, PayPal information, passwords, and in connection with some of our websites and applications, certain income information ("Financial Information").
Further, SM.com collects certain demographic information that is neither Personal Information nor Financial Information, which may include, but is not limited to, zip code and username. If your membership is terminated, LF.com will maintain your profile and your Personal and Financial Information in its database for up to two years and may maintain your blog and forum posts for more than two years.
